Solving the Advection Diffusion Reaction Equations by Using the Enhanced Higher-Order Unconditionally Positive Finite Difference Method

Abstract

In this paper, the enhanced higher-order unconditionally positive finite difference method is developed to solve the linear, non-linear and system advection diffusion reaction equations. Investigation into the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method is carried out by calculating the convergence rate, error and computational time. A comparison of the solutions obtained by the enhanced higher-order unconditionally positive finite difference and exact solution is conducted for validation purposes. The numerical results show that the developed method reduced the time taken to solve the linear and non-linear advection diffusion reaction equations as compared to the results obtained by the higher-order unconditionally positive finite difference method.
